## About

Founded in 2021 and based in New York, US, Mush Foods USA Inc trading under the name 50Cut, produces edible mycelium from mushrooms through fermentation and artificial intelligence. In January 2025, Mush Foods USA Inc raised venture funding from investor Lever VC. The company flagship product, 50CUT, is a mushroom-based blend for use in a variety of meat dishes. The firm developed a proprietary method for growing mushrooms and their underground root systems, known as mycelium, in a controlled indoor environment. The product enhances moisture retention, extends the juiciness of dishes, and provides additional flavor. It also functions as a natural thickener in soups and sauces. 50CUT contains less saturated fat and cholesterol compared to pure meat, while offering fiber, iron, and vitamin D. It is free from common allergens, including gluten, soy, and dairy, and is certified Kosher and Halal. The product can be incorporated into a wide range of menu items, including burgers, meatballs, sausages, skewers, chili, pasta dishes, and soups. Its ability to blend with different types of ground meat makes it adaptable for multiple cuisines.
